A 1987 study found negligible differences between the use of "undecided" and "neutral" as the middle option in a five-point Likert scale. [11] Likert scales may be subject to distortion from several ...
Each subscale contains items that measure both the trait and the opposite of the trait (e.g. the sincerity scale has items that measure both sincerity and insincerity, with insincerity scores being reverse coded). Each item is measured on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = strongly disagree, 5 = strongly agree). In the 100-item version of the HEXACO ...

Consideration of future consequences is measured by the Consideration of Future Consequences Scale developed by Strathman and colleagues, [1] and consists of 12 items. Respondents are asked to indicate to what extent each item characterizes them on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (extremely uncharacteristic) to 5 (extremely characteristic ...
The following types of reliability and validity should be established for a multi-item scale: internal reliability, test-retest reliability (if the variable is expected to be stable over time), content validity, construct validity, and criterion validity. Factor analysis is used in the scale development process.
A validity scale, in psychological testing, is a scale used in an attempt to measure reliability of responses, for example with the goal of detecting defensiveness, ...
Participants respond according to a five-point Likert scale ranging from (1=very much unlike me, 5=very much like me). [5] Sample items include “I find the world a very interesting place”, which gauges curiosity, and “I always let bygone be bygones”, which gauges forgiveness.
All PCQ scales are scored using a 6-point Likert scale. Each scale measures its own unique dimension of PsyCap. An overall PsyCap score is calculated by taking the mean of all the items in the PCQ. Scales include reverse-scored items. The 6-point Likert scale for all PCQ scales is as follows: Strongly Disagree; Disagree; Somewhat Disagree ...
